Answer:
x=9
Step-by-step explanation:
2(x + 6) = 3(x + 1)
2x+12=3x+3
2x+12-12=3x+3-12
2x=3x-9
2x-3x=-9
-1x=-9
-1x÷-1=-9÷-1
x=9
12 to the second power is equal to 144
(12 x 12)
1)
LHS = cot(a/2) - tan(a/2)
= (1 - tan^2(a/2))/tan(a/2)
= (2-sec^2(a/2))/tan(a/2)
= 2cot(a/2) - cosec(a/2)sec(a/2)
= 2(1+cos(a))/sin(a) - 1/(cos(a/2)sin(a/2))
= 2 (1+cos(a))/sin(a) - 2/sin(a)) (product to sums)
= 2[(1+cos(a) -1)/sin(a)]
=2cot a
= RHS
2.
LHS = cot(b/2) + tan(b/2)
= [1 + tan^2(b/2)]/tan(b/2)
= sec^2(b/2)/tan(b/2)
= 1/sin(b/2)cos(b/2)
using product to sums
= 2/sin(b)
= 2cosec(b)
= RHS
First, we need to get rid of the denominator. to do so, we will simply multiply all terms by 12 (which is the result of 3*4).
(3x/4)(12)+(2/3)(12)=(x/3)(12)
9x + 8 = 4x
then we will separate the variable in one side and solve to get its value
9x-4x = -8
5x = -8
x = -8/5
